Level 36 : 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Kazuki Ikeuchi

Josh Reichard, who came into Day 4 as the chip leader and stayed at or near the top of the leaderboard all day, just took a big hit to his stack.

The big hand began when Kazuki Ikeuchi raised to 1,200,000 and was three-bet by Reichard to 3,250,000. With action back on Ikeuchi. He tanked for almost a minute while counting his stack before finally announcing that he was all in. Reichard called immediately and both players tabled their hands.

Kazuki Ikeuchi: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
Josh Reichard: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}

Reichard had a dominating ace preflop, but that all changed after the flop came {9-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}, giving Ikeuchi top two pair, which held through the {3-Hearts} turn and {3-Clubs} river, shipping the huge pot his way and sending him near the top of the leaderboard.
